Aerodynamic shape optimization of a low drag fairing for small livestock trailers [PDF]
, 2008 Small livestock trailers are commonly used to transport animals from farms to market within the United Kingdom. Due to the bluff nature of these vehicles there is great potential for reducing drag with a simple add-on fairing.

An Actor-Oriented and Architecture-Driven Approach for Spatially Explicit Agent-Based Modeling
Complex Systems Informatics and Modeling Quarterly, 2023 Nowadays, there is an increasing need to rapidly build more realistic models to solve environmental problems in an interdisciplinary context. In particular, agent-based and spatial modeling have proven to be useful for understanding land use and land ...

A Metamodel for SDL-2000 in the Context of Metamodelling ULF [PDF]
, 2005 Today the syntax of many languages is defined by using context-free grammars. These syntax definitions suffer from a major drawback: grammars do not allow the definition of abstract, reusable concept definitions. Especially in families of related languages, where multiple languages often share the same concepts, this limitation leads to unnecessary ...

Metamodel construction for sensitivity analysis
ESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2017 We propose to estimate a metamodel and the sensitivity indices of a complex model m in the Gaussian regression framework. Our approach combines methods for sensitivity analysis of complex models and statistical tools for sparse non-parametric estimation ...

Aspect-oriented Metamodelling [PDF]
The Computer Journal, 2003 Summary: This paper shows how techniques devised for aspect-oriented modelling (AOM) can be used for aspect-oriented metamodelling. Metamodelling is an approach to language definition, which has been adopted by industry for defining modelling languages, in particular the Unified Modelling Language (UML), and involves the construction of an object ...
